In October I joined the group requesting information on hemangio
sarcoma which my felv cat was diagnosed with. Everything I read was
bad. He had the first tumor removed on 10-13-08. It came back this
time two tumors and they were removed on 1-6-09. This surgery was
very, very difficult on him to get over. Then on 2-13-09 the vet
discovered it had come back even more rapidly than the first time.
x-rays showed nothing in the lungs or spleen but the liver was hard
to see though not enlarged. This past Monday he stopped eating and
drinking and I knew it was time. The next morning I took my heart
disguised as a little 7 pound black and white angel to the vet for
the final time. The night before I laid him on the bed next to me
and he stared into my face purring for hours. The cancer had spread
to his liver and I knew I could not stand for him be in pain.
Before I took him to the vet I wrapped him in his cat blanket and
walked him all over the yard so he could see his ducks and feel the
air on his face. He loved to be outside. So from start to finish
he lived 19 weeks from diagnosis. This is a deadly, aggressive
cancer and I hope none of you experience it with your babies. I
had my little man for 8 years and 7 months and they were worth every
minute.
